The budget session of the Uttarakhand assembly would commence on June 14 in Dehradun. Normally the budget session of the assembly is held in the month of February- March but this year the general budget of the state could not be prepared because of the assembly elections. After the election, the Pushkar Singh Dhami government got a vote on account of Rs 21,116.81 crore passed from the State Assembly. Since this vote on account was for only for four months the state government needs to pass the general budget now.
The meeting was attended by additional chief secretary Radha Raturi, Inspector General (Intelligence) AP Anshuman and other senior officers.
